Chapleau Council Considering Options to Address Short Term Rentals

Chapleau Town Council's still considering how to address short-term rentals, such as AirBnB rentals.
Mayor Michael Levesque says the Township's zoning consultant has presented a few options, including doing nothing or launching an education and enforcement campaign targeting operators of such rentals.

Mayor Levesque says the other option presented was implementing policy and zoning changes to address short-term rentals, such as restricting where it's allowed and requiring permits - though that might not happen immediately.

Levesque says an update to the Official Plan isn't expected for a few years.
Council is still considering its options.
